The Mr. and Mrs. Smith series on Prime Video is shaking things up in the most chaotic way possible: New leads, new plot, same spy shenanigans! Donald Glover and Maya Erskine, who served us action, laughs, and plenty of relationship drama in season one, are apparently ghosting the second season faster than you ghost texts from your high school reunion group chat.
Wait, What? No Donald and Maya?
Thatβs rightβjust when you thought you’d get closure from that cliffhanger, the show decided to go full-on anthology mode. Think American Horror Story, but with fewer haunted clowns and more spy gadgets. According to Deadline, Amazon MGM Studios is swiping left on long-term contracts and looking for new talent in their 20s who only need to commit to one season. Commitment issues? This show gets it.
Billie Eilish as Jane? Say What Now?!
Rumor has it that Grammy-scooping icon Billie Eilish might be slipping into the role of Jane, and letβs be honest, sheβd probably nail the whole βsilent but deadlyβ vibe. Billie already made a creepy-good acting debut in Donald Gloverβs Swarm, so the spy world might just be her next missionβif she accepts it, of course. No word yet if sheβs officially signed on, but weβre crossing our fingers and dusting off our trench coats in anticipation.
About That Season One Cliffhanger…
Now, if you were hoping to find out whether Donald and Mayaβs characters survived or just noped out of the spy game, youβre out of luck. The end of season one left things hanging by a thread, and with the new season going in a fresh direction, who knows? Maybe the characters perished in a dramatic explosion. Maybe they faked their deaths to open a food truck in the Bahamas. Or maybe the writers just pulled a βweβll figure it out laterβ move.
Bottom line: Season two is coming, and itβs bringing fresh faces, new secrets, and just enough chaos to keep us hooked. Whether Billie Eilish ends up sneaking around as Jane or we meet an entirely different duo, one thingβs for sure: weβll be watching… and probably yelling at the screen.
